STARTLING!

WE ASSERT THIS STARTLING FACT !:
w We can prove by our books that three
out of every five persons that consume case
of the famous 1ErNA MINERAL WATERS re-
ceiye direct and certain benefit, for our ledger
shows thst three out of every five that purchase
the first case return for the second third, fourth
and fifth, many of them continuing its use in
definitely. 1t is certain specific for Liver and
Kidney Disorders Dyspepsia and Rheumatism
This is not merely q statement but Iact estab-
lished by our sales, in hundreds of instances of
over twenty consecutive cases to the same per-
son. Another significant evidence lies in the
fact that although the astonishing effect of these
mineral waters was not generally known on the
subject OF public discussion till within the last
three months, yet within that time, in fact since
April 1lth last. the sales have increased till they
are now eight times what they were at that date
Hundreds attest its marvellous curative proper
ties but we have only room here for a few
names of persons who from experience assert
its efficacy

oakland,s Local Statesmen.

If there is anything too shameless for
Buckley Supervisor or d Chicago Alderman
to do, the Oakland City Council will doubt
less be glad to attend to it at reasonable
rates. Oakland has been trying for some
time to sound the depths of her local legis-
lature's depravity, but with indifferent sue
cess. Possibly the bottom has been
touched in Mondays action on the license
question, but if SO it is the fault of the
opportunities not of the Councilmen.
The subject of high license has attracted
much attention across the Bay It was an
issue in the election last March. Five
wards against two voted in favor of an in
crease in the rate. The plan had been tried
with brilliant success in the East. where it
had increased the revenues and eliminated
low grog shops, and the Oaklanders saw no
reason why they should not make it work
equally well. The last Council promptly
put up the license fee, in accordance with
| the popular verdict, but the saloon-keepers
fought the increase in the Courts. The
present Council was pledged to pass an
amended ordinance which would remove
| the grounds for resistance, when, at Mon
| day meeting, two members who had beeR
profuse in their promises of fidelity to the
will of the voters, silently went over to the
liquor men, and the rates were cut down
one-half. One of the two converts i'm
mediately went East but the other. with
more courage, stayed behind and invested
$1,000 in a corner lot.
The anHnded ordinance was passed in
silence. Not word of explanation was
offered by the men who so suddenly re-
| lieved themselves of their pledges. After
J ward, however. the reporters succeeded in
extracting some information from them.
One of them said, with much plausibility.
thatit was matter of dollars and cents"
but he was less happy in explaining Just
how the dollars and cents affected the mat
ter. He thought that the action was due
to desire to relieve the city treasury. To
the public the nature of the relief seems
different. The other said that the low
license could be enforced and the high
license could not.
OF course these excuses are iaughable.
The con dition of the city treasury was Just
as well known when these men pledged
| themselves to high license as 1t is now. All
experience shows that high rate can be
enforced as easily as low one when once
the aloon-keepers have been taught that
the people are in earnest. If the fact that
tax is fought is to be sufficient reason for
its abandonment, there will be an unprece-
dented crop of delinquencies. The real
| reasons of the Oakland Councilmen are
much less transparent than those they
have offered the public.-!S. T. Post.

New York is a city Of ups and downs, and
pretty lively ones at that. As a rule, the
downs are a good deal more sudden than the
ups, but sometimes the ups are rapid enough
to be called phenomenal The rise of a young
man who is now defendant in a suit for linn
tied divorce is a striking case in point His
name is Robert Mcbride, and the papers say
he owns over a hundred tea stores in New
York and several other cities. A man with
so many stores to look after can't have much
time for home life, and this may be one rea-
son why the mutifarious tea merchants wife
wants a divorce, with plenty Of alimony, Of
course. The rise of Robert Mcbride is really
remarkable. His age is about 80 and his wife
is %. 1t is only about fifteen years since he
landed in New York from Ireland. His pock-
cts were empty and he was glad TO get en-
ployment in tea store.
How he rose from clerk to owner, and then
rapidly expanded into proprietor of a hun
dred stores, it would take too long to tell
Four years ago he married into a New
York family of good social position. After
the marriage ceremony the couple held a
stylish reception at Dclmonico's Mcbride

installed his bride there. They made tour
Of Europe, saw all the sights and had the
best time that money could buy. In a few
years the unknown Irish immigrant had mar
ried New York belle, taken leading place
among merchants and was established in a
fashionable home on Fifth avenue. Pretty
rapid progress, that. New York is often said
to be terribly overcrowded. but there is al
ways room for men who know how to push
